@alaska-riversong Yay! What do you think of it so far? @karenle67 It's on demand??? I'd love to watch this all at once so I don't have to wait all week.

Reese’s has kind of an iconic taste - like, other pb candy doesn’t taste anything like it. The other part of that is that the pb we usually eat in sandwiches tastes different from Reese’s. So if you’re going to make a pb&j sandwich, use one of the others. Crunchy vs smooth is a classic debate, lol. Usually you come down on one side or the other! The JIF, a long-time commercial favorite will also taste different from the organics.

Thank you!! That was super comprehensive! Well - idk what I’m gonna do, to be honest. I loved Meet Joe Black, and how Brad Pitt walks around licking teaspoons of peanut butter, but than I bought one at marks&spencer, and it was weird? super... choke-y and dense. In all of the youtube videos, people use PB as dip for apples, or stuff like that, but this had none of that consistency, it was way harder and denser than nutella, like hardened honey. So I decided I didn’t like it but I think it might have been the brand, not the product.

Yep, the opening song took my breath away. A capella, fuuuuck. I've never sung before, my eye. Having read more, the "director/writer" is mostly a producer. He was out of his lane. Maybe there wasn't enough scripted/shot to edit together to tell the story properly.

A CAPELLA. I was SO taken aback by that whole sequence. DAmmit, Thomas. 

Like, it needs an extended cut where scenes were properly segued and not all over the place...

Ok so I'm on my phone having late lunch in the groovy grocery store ne t to the indie movie house... So short and to the point. Tom's performance was excellent overall, creepy-good in spots. Tf was with the structure of this movie/the script? The way the story was told left huge, seemingly important gaps that didn't help any body's performance/character/the editor. What a mess.

Exactly what I thought. I’m actually ridiculously easy to please when it comes to movies, but it was so choppy. I assume most of that was an editing choice, but who knows; maybe it was in the script as well. If someone was watching without having at least a general knowledge of Hank’s life, they were probably lost. Thank GOD I read some interviews beforehand, so I would’ve been SUPER confused because things would just cut away to a 5 second scene that they didn’t explain. As it was, I spent a lot of the time trying to piece things together because of that. 

But on the plus side, the acting was SO good. Tom...Christ. Beyond the singing and embodying a cultural icon, that spiral into depression and drugs? He had to go so incredibly dark and he just...he nailed everything. When he was so far gone, but insisted on singing on the couch? Or Luke the Drifter? Wow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him spiral so far before. That’s what impressed me the most. Just...astonishing.

Though a case could be made for the opening scene (which I didn’t even understand til after). But the way that was SHOT, his silhouette against those blinding ethereal lights, leg cocked against the stool, never moving, keeping his voice perfect and steady...

I mean, look at his stupid perfect FACE in that gifset with the spoons. Just LOOK at it. He KNOWS what he's doing, but it's like he can't turn it off so he just enjoys the destruction - of his mother's kitchen, Stephen's desk, and my sanity.

He's got zero control over his charm level. The lever's been broken for a long time and now the train's just hurdling down the track full-speed ahead, mowing down ovaries with glee.

You’re brave!

I’m not really. I need someone to come hold my hand. Someone with a beard. Someone really tall and strong with a beard. And tattoos. And good banter. I need Jason Momoa to come hold my hand.
